Aah yes but our parents still had coal fires or gas fires and coal bunkers at the bottom of the yard, gran always had candles in the pantry along with salted or other preserved grub todays wrinklies rely on meals on wheels, and the phones were powered by the phone line not the house supply. Socialism and the welfare state has eradicated our self reliance.
Just walked the dog and seen the first and only inteligent sheep I have ever seen, as I got near the main drag I noticed a black faced wooly bugger use the drifting snow to get over the fence and it immediately took shelter in the covered in bus stop !!!, either that or its waiting for the X2 to take it to Durham ?
